About this item

This book covers the essentials of Model-Based Testing (MBT) structured according to the ISTQB® Certified Tester -- Foundation Level syllabus extension "Model Based Tester" (ISTQB® CTFL-MBT syllabus). The text begins with an introduction to Model-Based Testing, covering both the benefits and the limitations of model-based testing in order to avoid unrealistic expectations. The authors reviews the various approaches to model-based testing, explaining the fundamental processes in model-based testing and their relation to "standard" test processes. The text also examines how MBT fits in agile and phased software development processes and how to deploy it in practice. Two case studies at the end of the book illustrate typical examples of projects using model-based testing. In addition to the two case studies, in-book exercises will allow readers to practice modeling and test generation activities.
